About this book
WHAT KIND OF WORLD DO WE WANT TO LIVE IN?
Capitalism and democracy are under growing strain, and outdated solutions can no longer meet today’s global challenges. The world needs a new approach—one that unites profit and purpose to build a fairer, more sustainable world.
Welcome to the Impact Revolution.
In this updated second edition, Sir Ronald Cohen—pioneering investor, philanthropist, and architect of the global impact movement—offers a compelling road map for reshaping capitalism. Drawing on decades of experience in venture capital and social innovation, he shows how impact investing improves public spending, reduces investment risk, and increases business resilience.
Impact is a call to action for anyone—entrepreneurs, investors, leaders, policymakers, consumers, and students—seeking to drive meaningful change. With real-world examples and practical insights, Sir Ronald makes a powerful case for a new era of shared prosperity.
The Impact Revolution is here. This book will show people how to be part of it.
Join the movement that’s redefining success—and the future.
